Nad's Facial Wax Strips

Packaged in a plastic bag inside a box are 20 double sided strips. Aswell as four foiled bag after care wipes. The wipes are oil based and are a full size wipe which could've been smaller and I may try to half it to get more use from the 1. The strips have the feel of cloth and are weaved. They wax is green and no real scent that I can smell. The strips are conveniently sized to suit the small targeted areas for application. However I found for the brows still to be a bit big so have cut down more, to suite the brow are for easy use. It takes no time to prepare. Just rub between hands then peel apart and apply to area. Then rub onto target area until you see that the strip has adhered to target zone. Keep skin taut and rip off. I love the effect and the feeling isn't abrasive or tearing of the skin. The wax is very gentle yet effective with hair removal. It did show signs of tenderness on my skin near my lids as my upper right lid has a scar and this area is thinner than usual due to the scar tissue and this is where it teared at my skin. But not to worry I'm applying my kawa kawa cream to help and reduce any skin irritation. I found the wipes were more irritating to this secondary tear. The only thing that I had wrong but I don't blame the product I think this more my skin issue. I am now going to continue to purchase this for the price I get 20 uses and this would be the price of 1 visit to the beauty salon for the same job done. I think if you have ano facial hair of which you want to remove yourself do it and buy these. It's simple convenient and easy. If you have already a good brow shape and just need removal of excessive hair this is for you.

I use this product to wax my upper lip and in between my eyebrows and its really good! It is really simple to use and gets a lot of those little fine hairs. I found it tricky to use on my eyebrows because the strips are a little bit to big. The only down side is that (this could just be me) But i found that a couple of days after using it I get pimples where I have used the product. Over all though really good product! Its the best one I found at the supermarket and it doesnt cost and arm and a leg.

These are pricey and in my opinion just not worth the money. I liked that there were 24 in a pack. I wanted to use for my upper lip and between my eye brows. It was easy to heat up. But thats were the good parts end. I had to use approx 4 strips just for the upper lip and still did not get all the hairs. It left a mess and a red bumpy rash and by the next day had pimples in the area. i have sensitive skin and definitely aggravated my symptoms. never again would i use them, highly disappointed

I remember when Nads first hit the market years ago & they were marketed to be less painful than normal wax products. Not the case.....

A good size pack but I sadly used only a few before I threw them out.

Although they warm easily between your hands & the strips are more flexible & easy to handle than some of the competitors products, they're not overly effective. I tried these on my upper lip & brows. They worked on getting the fine hair out but not the dark thick ones.

I found they left a lot of wax behind on the skin and left me quite sore. Generally I can wax my brows with no pain as I've been waxing them for years and the upper lip is bearable, but these brought tears to the eyes on the upper lip!

The next day I had a few pimples come up.

Wont be getting these again.

I have peach fuzz that annoys the bejeebers out of me. I tried shaving it once after seeing youtube tutorials about it being good and it won't grow back stubbly. All lies I tell you! It grew back thick and dark eewww! I am embarrassed by this but this calls for honesty and that is what I shall do. I thought I would try my hand at DIY wax with Nad's Facial Wax Strips after reading about them on the Nad's website and liking what they promised. No more shaving for me hopefully!

It comes with double sided wax strips which have an almost cloth feel. They mold easily to my face without being uncomfortable. I warm the strips between my hands peel them apart. The strips themselves are conveniently sized to fit in the smaller areas and if they are too big I just cut them to size. I apply the strip to my upper lip and press on firmly. I pull the skin tight and give it the band aid treatment by pulling fast to minimize any pain that might come with it. I needn't worry about pain, my threshold is quite high so I didn't feel much other than a quick burning sensation.

The wax which is green is left behind after pulling it off which is annoying. I try to reapply the strip and pull off excess wax. I find that the thick short hairs are sometimes left behind but the finer hairs are pulled out. I remedy this by letting it grow a little bit longer and then waxing. It works!

After two weeks of being hair free I can see fine hairs are starting to show their heads which is quite impressive. I can handle two weeks. The only thing I didn't like is the red mark it left on my upper lip which lasted a day. If I am going to do this I do it at least 24 hours before I need to go anywhere so I don't look like I have scrub on my top lip eeww. I use the aftercare wipes that are included in the pack to wipe off excess wax and to also soothe the area after I rip the strip off. I found that using these wipes actually made the red mark flare up more so stick to using my sensitive skin wipes and it seems to lessen the red mark a bit. It's a great at home remedy to those small embarrassing areas women often have. Fast and effective!

I had been using Veet Facial Wax Strips for years to get rid of unwanted facial hair on my upper lip, until the day that the strip ripped off a thin layer of skin as well as the unwanted hairs! This ended up happening on more than one (separate) occasion and I wasn't waxing over an area that I'd already done, so I finally switched from Veet to Nad's.

Compared to Veet Facial Wax Strips, I find the Nad's Facial Wax Strips to be much more gentle. They don't leave the skin on my lip looking as red and irritated for as long and I've even re-waxed an area where some hairs have been left behind, something I definitely wouldn't do with the Veet strips.

These strips are the perfect size for other areas, like my bikini line, belly button and feet (yes, unfortunately I have hairy toes that need waxing too) and they work really well.

Would I purchase them again or recommend them? Yes, I've bought these multiple times and will continue to use them. I'd definitely recommend them over the Veet ones.

Scouring the shelf at our local pharmacy for the Nads eyebrow wand I couldn’t find it, the lovely sales assistant came over to tell me they no longer stock it. Waves of panic wash over me, what am I going to do now? I needed that wand like yesterday, these brows are seriously outta control. I then spotted a familiar looking white and green box with the NADS logo, I pick it up and read the box. ‘wax strips’ it read. Well I can make it work I thought and promptly made my way home to tidy myself up.

These wax strips sounded too good to be true, warm between your hands, peel apart, apply to desired area. Now I must confess I am a bit lazy when it comes to some beauty chores, the faster and easier the better, so I was already in love from that point.

I grabbed out two of the strips and the outsides look like two cotton strips with like a wax/plastic coating and feel quite strong. They are probably the size of your thumb and are rectangular shape. After I hold the strips between my palms for a few seconds I pull them apart and can see a very thin layer of green wax. Now this is where the fun began.. so with these strips being rectangular and my eyebrows slightly rounded I was so, so scared I was going to rip half my eyebrows off. But very careful and precise placing and it was perfect.

I pull the skin tight around my temple and rip the strip off and yus no pain! Just a quick burn and it’s all over. I examine the strip and notice even the teeny tiny blonde hairs have come out too, winning! A cold facecloth over my brows for a few minutes and there is not even any redness. I also love how these strips don’t even leave any sticky residue after your finished just super soft skin. I still have to pluck a few strays from really close to my brows but this only takes a few seconds and it’s something I normally have to do anyway.

Overall I’m really impressed with these strips and I will continue to purchase them over the eyebrow wand they are more convenient, quicker and actually do a better job.

A staple product in my hair removal regime. The strips are pre waxed so all you need to do is rub the strips between your hands, separate the strips and apply to the area of hair you want to remove. I tend to use these strips just for the upper lip as that is where I feel most comfortable that I won't make a mistake, but I understand that people use these strips for brows, other facial hair areas and sometimes bikini line. Priced between $10-$15 per pack of 24 strips these strips can last me about 6 months or even longer sometimes so definitely worth the money spent.

I picked these up just before Christmas because I had forgotten to book in with my beauty therapist beforehand and my moustache was getting out of control. In my opinion getting your top lip waxed is the most ouchy area on your body and I wasn't really looking forward to trying to do it myself. The strips are stuck together and you just need to warm them between your hands so you can pull them apart. Then I applied one to my face and waited a minute or so. Then I pulled it off in the way the directions advised and while it hurt it was literally only when I was pulling it off that it did hurt. I did two strips on each side and after that there were all but three hairs left on each side which I just tweezed out. Then I used the one of the calming oil wipes and it soothed my skin and removed all traces of the wax from my face. It was so easy that I'm going to keep doing this myself at home. I'm a total convert!
